DALLAS — Regardless of what happens when No. 1 Alabama visits Texas on Saturday, the game will be overanalyzed until talking heads turn blue.
If Alabama (1-0) does what Alabama does, oh, 99% of the time, Texas will again be mocked for not being ready for the Top 25 and certainly not the SEC in the future, let alone Big 12 now.
If somehow, 20-point underdog Texas (1-0) shocks pretty much everyone with the unthinkable upset, witty variations of “Texas is back” and all that entails will be everywhere for at least a week.
